7 { W • I HEALTH TALK S THE McHENRY PLAUfDEALEB £>*•.- •: Beware Of Boili pernot they nuistap,, r, Why boils occur in some tons and not in others is %nown, but to the afflicted ,ftre known to be' a painful lance. The germ called the Shylococcua seems to be the chief Ulprit in this type of infection, inown as furunculosis, invading Ihe blood stream through a single |air follicle in an irritated area, the educational committee of the ** Illinois State Medical society ad- ^ tinea in a HEALTH TALK. ' Because boils or furuncles ap- 'bi '" iear on the hairy surfaces of the ;:f .tody, attempts should be made to ; jivoid chafing and other irritaf ^ 'lions. Men inclined to wear tight . dollars, for example, may be sub- . Ject to boils. In some persons, a 1' . jingle boil has appeared while in i •' ^fhe susceptible ones the condition h"'teems to be chronic and the sufv-| erer will develop dozens of them. <>ften simultaneously and again OveT a long period of time. Fortunately, the development of Bew drugs has reduced the threat (»f spread of boils, but because these painful pus-forming masses j,re associated with several debil- 11 a t i n g conditions, everyone ------should be suspicious of them, {toils have been observed in uncontrolled diabetics, for example. --Excessive fatigue and anemia are consults a physician to rule out any other abnormal physical condition, for this too may be controlled if detected early. ANTIQUE AUTOMOBILE DISPLAY SHOWN IN MINIATURE AT FAIR "Antique automobiles are again featured at the Illinois state fair, but this year the display is in miniature. The exhibit, one of three prepared by the office of the Secretary of State, will be located in the exhibition hall of the Illinois building. Eleven scale replicas of early American automotive genius will be displayed. Fashioned by hand, the models are the work Of Henry G. Smith. Springfield. Included in the group are a 1909 Model T. Ford, a 1906 Brush, a 1911 Mercer roadster, and a 1909 Stanley Steamer. The miniatures are authentic reproductions down to the finest details. The model of the 1906 Brush is a replica of a car owned by Secretary Barrett. an antique automobile enthusiast. : : ."-'I..- EFFECT OF NEW RENT INCREASE PROVISION TOLD conditions associated with boils. The boil begins as a mild red •pot. The body, seeking to resist the invading germ, concentrates white blood cells in the site. The edness is increased as the blood umishes more white cells in the rea to surround the germs, causing them to die and liquify. The process forms pus, which is released as the infection wears ^ff. ?1When this happens, relief of pain |s noticed and later the "core" ialways identified with a boil is - -^exuded. The "core" is formed by the white blood cells, the extra Irirod needed to produce them and the germs which have not yet liquified as well as some dead tissue. Another type of boil or skin abscess is called the carbuncle, differing in characteristic form in that it is a large boil and instead of invading one hair follicle inclades several in an area. The common site of the carbuncle is \ jthe back of the neck. Connective f fibers extending from the heart into the neck supply the passage • of pus to the heart, making the carbuncle in the neck especially dangerous. s No one should squeese or prick ; a boil or carbuncle. Indeed no one should do this to the lowly pimple. More serious infection can develop, resulting in complications and badly scarred areas of the skin. Since it is quite common for boils and carbuncles to occur in crops, disappear for a time only to recar again, they should not be neglected. Persons should be careful abont handling towels and garments that may belong to :! others, since the staphylococcus transfers itself easily to any favorable or susceptible site. And wise is the person who Home Injuries Totaled 4,100,000 During Past Year One out of every 37 persons in the United States was disabled one or more days by njuries received *in home accidents during 1950. Home injuries totaled 4,- 100,000, according to the 1951 edition of "Accident Facts," the statistical yearbook of the National Safety Council, and these included 110,000 permanent impairments. „ The home death toil was 27,- 500. of which about half resulted from falls. c Pattern Press Release Here's what will happen under the 20 percent rent increase provision of the rent law passed by Congress and signed by President Truman. Landlords who are eligible for the rent Increase must file a sworn application with the rent office. Application forms may be obtained at the rent office. In any case where the present maximum rent is less than 120 percent of the Jun^ 30, 1947, rent plus adjustments for improvements and services, the landlord is eligible for the rent increase. Here ase some typical cases showing landlords who are eligible and those who are not: 1. The landlord's rent on June 30, 1947, was $50 per month, and he has received no increase since that date5. He may now obtain an additional 'StO percent to $60, 2. The landlord's rent on June 30, 1947, was $50. Since that date he has received an increase in rent to $57.50 under a "Voluntary lease" which was authorized by Congress in 1947 and 1948. In this case the landlord may obtain a rent increase to $60, which is 20 percent more than the $50 rent in effect before the tease. 3. The landlord's rent on June 30, 1947, was $50. Since that date he has received an increase in rent to $5$ because a $5 increase was necessary to compensate him for increased costs. In this case the landlord may obtain a rent increase to $60, which is 20 percent more than the $50 in effect before the Increased a oMt adjustment took place. ° ' 4. The landlord's rent on June SO, 1947, was $50, and he has since received a $10 increase because j of a major improvement such as a garage, modern bathroom, sleeping l^jrch, etc., or an increase in services such as utilities, heat, etc. He may now obtain an additional 20 percent on his present rent of $60, for a total new rent of $72. 5. The landlord's rent on June 30, 1947, was $50. Since that date the reut has been Increased to $60 because the $50 rent was less than that" brought for comparable dwelling units. Since the $10 increase was not for an improvement or an increase in services, the landlord cannot obtain a further increase under the 20 percent provision because he is already receiving 12 percent of the original $50 rent. • In any case where the present maximum rent is already more than 12 percent of the June 30. 1947 rent plus adjustments for improvements and services, the present maximum rent continues without change. In any case where there has been a decrease in services or equipment such as cutting off utilities, such increases must be shown in the application and a offsets against the 20 percent Increase. : PUBLIC LIBRARY EXHIBIT FEATURED AT ILLINOIS FAIR The many ways in which a public library serves an entire home will be illustrated in the Illinois state library exhibit at the 1951 Illinois State Fair, which opened Aug. 10. A sample living room, den,-^tchen and hobby shop is set up Iti the state library exhibit area on the balcony of the , exposition building, and books particularly appropriate for use in each room will be placed in them, Mr. Barrett said.^ Recreational reading, phonograph recordings and Viewmasters are featured in the living room, books for home study and planning, budget making and record keeping are placed in the den, materials on menus, nutrition, food preservation, flower arrangements and table settings are set up in the kitchen, and in the h o b b y s h o p , h o w - t o - d o - i t a n d how-to-make-it books are emphasized. ' Two popular features of the state library exhibits at earlier state fairs are repeated this year. One ie the "art gallery," showing examples of art prints, which are loaned on the same basis as books, and "Adventure Avenue--For the Younger Set," a corner devoted exclusively to books, recordings, ViewmaBters and other items of particular interest to children. COLLEGE BOARD tJorernor Adlai E. Stevenson has appointed to the new teachers' college board all of the seven members of the old college board which formerly operated jointly with the Department of Registration and Education. The change in boards arises from legislation passed by the 67th General Assembly. The new board will have exclusive control of Illinois State^ Normal University,, Northern Illinois State Teachers College, Eastern Illinois State College and Western Illinois State College.

New Jersey recorded the lowest accident fatality rate in 1950, according to the 19S1 edition of "Accidents Facts," the National Safety Council's statistical yearbook.

TAYLOR, ABC Network, every Mondoy evening^ how right that proved to be. Here, they found, was a basically different way of delivering power. - It was the first drive to get completely away from any gears which function in a series cf fixed stages -- the first to apply supercharging -principles that did pew tricks with spinning oil. And how folks loved it! "They loved the freedom from strain in traffic. And the new "sweetness" of ride which every passenger could enjoy. They loved the command it gives them of every traffic situation--and the relaxation it contributes to a long day's drive. They loved its extra safety in slippery going, and the improved control in mud and snow. As they had a chance to pile up--- experience, they loved the unexpected savings of rear tire wear _ and reduced strain on all driving parts, from engine to differential. And finally -- they loved what it does for the value of a Buick, as reflected in the (extra dollars that Dynaflow* adds to the resale price of a car. Have you sampled this driving sensation?
